Summer 2021: Frank & Jordan Baseman

Summer 2021 is a poster by brothers Frank and Jordan Baseman that featured in the Van Gogh House London 'On the Western Window Pane' poster project.

'On the Western Window Pane' was a new year long project presenting 12 artist designed posters in its front, west facing window. Envisaged as a simple but direct way of making contemporary art, design and the house’s many layered stories accessible to the public, artists were invited to create posters drawing out narratives from the building’s remarkable history, touching on topics from domesticity and mental health to coming-of-age and unionism.
